Donald Miller – A Million Miles in a Thousand Years

Thanks to Michael Hyatt and Thomas Nelson publishing I got my hands on two pre-release copies of Donald Millers new book A Million Miles in a Thousand Years. I’m supposed to do a review on my other more random blog on Sept 29th, the day it releases, but I can’t not talk about this book right now. Donald Miller and innovation go hand in hand.

Bottomline… this book is good. The best one of Donald’s since Blue Like Jazz. It’s challenging, thought provoking, hilarious, inspiring and moving. I loved it. You’ll want to go out and ride your bike across America or dig wells for clean water in Africa after reading this. I recommend it.

Michael Hyatt is the man

If you haven’t added Michael Hyatt’s blog to your Google Reader yet, you’re missing out. He is the CEO of Thomas Nelson Publishing, a brilliant businessman and a standout when it comes to spiritual leadership. He is passionate about using social media to influence those around him for Christ. In fact he’s coined the term Leadership 2.0 (i.e. Web 2.0), where people will be interconnected and dialoguing across multiple platforms instead of the old-school uni-directional communication model.
